After months of anticipation and speculation, we finally have a full look at the first-ever foldable Infinix device which was unveiled today. Dubbed the Infinix Zero Flip, the smartphone is the company’s latest flagship offering that is flippable and also carries some intriguing features like 4K ProStable video capture on both the front and rear cameras and GoPro connectivity.
The main talking point with this phone is the whole look which is inspired by a device already in the market with a 7.64mm thick frame. According to Infinix, the Zero Flip has a 400,000-fold hinge designed to last as long as possible. The chassis is made of Corning glass and is designed to ensure resilience against wear and tear. Whether it’s ready for impact can only be answered through real-life testing.
The device sports a 3.64-inch external display that you can say is more of an auxiliary screen providing shortcuts to popular apps like TikTok and features Dynamic MultiView Display.
A MediaTek Helio D8020 6nm chipset powers the Infinix Zero Flip while a 4720mAh battery pack is its power source. AI is also set to be part and parcel of this phone’s functionality with Google Gemini integrated to offer automatic handling of daily tasks.
It’s quite clear that the phone is designed to be a very useful and efficient tool for content creation given the various videography and photography features it packs.
“In its flipped state, the ZERO Flip transforms into a mini DV (Digital Video), offering an easy grip to capture life’s best moments anytime. With a variety of video templates, users can pick up this “DV” anytime, anywhere and create their vibe-filled retro vlog. The built-in AI Vlog Mode provides step-by-step guidance, making the process effortless. Users can turn raw footage into polished vlogs with just a few taps, states Infinix in a blog post.
Internationally, the phone is set to retail at $600 (about KES 77,000) in two colour options; Blossom Glow and Rock Black. We can provide exclusive info that the Zero Flip is also set to launch very soon in the Kenyan market so users can definitely anticipate an announcement from Infinix about the device.
